Betrayed by My Beta Mate Chapter 54
54 Dealt With
Leland POV
As soon as I hear Lucas’s voice in my head, every bit of joy I felt a moment ago is gone. After all I have seen him do over these
last few months, I know exactly what he is capable of. If something happens to Lance, it will be because he helped me. I can’t
have my brother pay for my decisions. As soon as Lucas breaks our connection, I open my eyes and everyone is staring at me.
“What happened Leland”, Pheobe asks me. A million thoughts run through my mind about what to do next, but the strongest one
is to protect Lance. I don’t want to hurt these people, but what other choice do I have? I compose myself to keep my heart rate
even. I know the wolves can hear changes in my heart rate that could make them suspicious. I won’t lie, I just won’t tell them
everything. “My brother reached out to me as we had planned about the timing of the attack. Lance said that Lucas told him they
will be attacking at dusk tomorrow.” Teresa squeezes my hand and I look down, seeing what looks like disappointment on her
face. She couldn’t have heard my conversation with Lucas, our bond isn’t complete. “That’s amazing, we will ready the warriors
for their arrival. Lucas is going to be very sorry for all he has done”, the Alpha says to everyone in the room. I nod and Pheobe
stands. “We’re going to let you rest, mother” she says and leans down to hug Teresa. “Leland, I assume you will stay with her
and protect her.” “Of course, with my life” I say. “I’m glad you have each other, you both deserve to be happy” Pheobe says
before she takes Michael’s hand to leave. I hate that she is trusting me and once again, Lucas is going to hurt her through me.
Everyone else says their goodbyes before I’m alone with Teresa for the first time since I’ve arrived. I grab a chair pulling it to sit
down next to her bed. “So, are you going to tell me what just happened?” “What do you mean”, I ask hoping she is just talking
about how I got here. “Leland, do not keep secrets from me. I choose you, but if you betray my family, that will all change.” I take
a deep breath and look into her eyes. “Lucas has figured out what Lance and I did and he is going to kill Lance if I don’t help
him.” She grips my hand “You need to tell Pheobe and the Alpha everything.” “I want to Teresa but he will kill Lance.” She pushes
herself up so she is sitting up straighter. “Leland for years I allowed my fear of Lucas to dictate my choices and because of that
many of the people I love have suffered. I promise you that telling the truth and asking for help is the better path to travel. It is the
only path I will travel with you.” I feel like my heart is squeezing in my chest. I need both of them alive and with me. How do I do
this?
I say a prayer to the goddess that Teresa is right and these people can help us save Lance. “I will tell them everything.” She lifts
my hand to her lips, placing a soft kiss on the back of it. Before I realize what she is doing, she lays her hand on my marking spot

and begins to chant. The feeling of her magic flowing through me is so overwhelming. After a few minutes, she pulls her hand
away and I lean in to kiss her for the first time. Her lips are soft and I pour everything I feel for her into that kiss. When I pull back,

she smiles. “I promise that when I’m one hundred percent we will finish the mating and complete the bond.” “There is no rush
love, I’m never letting you go.” I go into the bathroom and look at her beautiful blue mark on my neck. The mark that shows
everyone that I belong to her. I come back out and head for the door. “Where are you going” she asks, a little panicked. “I need
one of the nurses to contact the Alpha so we can discuss my conversation with Lucas.” She smiles and I walk to the nurse’s
station. After the nurse assures me, she will let him know, I head back to Teresa’s room. Once I’m inside, I sit back in the chair
and take Teresa’s hand waiting until they arrive.
Amelia POV
I walk with Lincoln hand in hand as the others walk ahead. I wanted to be a hundred percent before I brought this up to Lincoln
and today, I feel that. I feel like I’m ready to deal with Jennifer. “Lincoln, before everything happens with Lucas, I would like to
deal with Jennifer. He stops walking for a moment. He steps closer pulling me into him. “Are you sure you want to be the one to
do this love?” “Star and I are positive that we are the ones that will be dealing with her. She tried to hurt me and my pup by taking
me away from my mate. She is mine.” He buries his head in my neck. “That was really hot love” he whispers in my ear and I
chuckle. He pulls back “let’s go do this.” We catch up with the others. “Michael, will you take Neal to the warrior’s barracks to
start preparing them for the battle.” “You’re not coming with us” he says with confusion on his face. “No, Amelia will be dealing
with Jennifer first.” Lily smiles and Pheobe looks confused. I give her the short version and they both take a seat on the patio
while Lincoln and I head to the cells. As we approach the guard, he bares his neck to us. “Open the door”, he says, and the
guard does as he asks. He leads me down the stairs.
We come to stand in front of the cell and she smiles when she sees Lincoln. She really can’t be this delusional. He has her
locked in the cells and she is still smiling at him. I step around, so I’m standing in front of him. He places his hands on my
shoulders and the smile she had is gone. “What the f**k do you want” she says with all the venom she can muster. “Be careful
how you speak the Luna of this pack” Lincoln says and growls. “She is no Luna of mine and you have made a mistake by
claiming someone else’s ba**ard child.” That is all I need to hear and Star is at the surface. I step forward “Jennifer for the crimes
committed against myself and the heir to the pack you have been sentenced to death. The sentence will be carried out by me.”
Her eyes get big and for first time she stays quiet. I turn to the guard “take her to the pack yard now.” “Lincoln, please don’t let
her do this. You care about me and she is jealous, please stop her from hurting me.” He laughs “my Luna has spoken.” We head
for the stairs and I hear her screaming at the guard who is pulling her out of the cell.
We reach the pack yard and it’s almost dusk. The only ones around are Lily and Pheobe who stay seated in the chairs on the

patio. Lily knows I need to do this for myself and won’t interfere. The guard throws Jennifer to the ground about twenty feet from
me. “Star, are you ready?” “Ready to shut her up permanently, absolutely.” “Turn around” I hear Lincoln yell at the guard and I

chuckle as I start to strip. “Amelia please don’t do this, I’m sorry” Jennifer pleads. “It’s too little too late, now shift” I give
command before I shift into Star. I watch as Jennifer’s wolf takes over. She is an average-size wolf with dirty brown fur. We start
to circle her. She starts to back up but then lunges at Star. We side step before we come around biting down on her hind leg.
She whines and tries to pull free. Star releases her and she tries to run. Star follows, knocking her to the ground. The wolf rolls
three times before she manages to get to her feet again. As we stalk toward her, she shifts. At first, I think it’s an attempt to stop
what is happening but then I realize it wasn’t her choice. I can hear her pleading with her wolf to shift back. Her wolf has
abandoned her. She is barely able to stand on her feet with the injury to her leg and no wolf to heal her. “It’s time to end this
Star.” We close the distance between us and we shift to human form.
I see a moment of hope in her eyes before I take a fighting stance. I can’t kill her in wolf form when she doesn’t have a wolf. I am
not a monster. She smiles and we start to circle each other. She doesn’t realize that just because I’m not a warrior doesn’t mean
that I haven’t trained. She comes at me and I superman punch her in the face. She is knocked to the ground. I don’t allow her
time to get up and I’m on top of her. I punch two more times before I grab her and pull her into a seated position. I wrap my arms
around her neck and head. I move in one swift movement and I hear her neck break. I drop her to the ground before Lincoln
helps me to stand. He takes off his shirt, placing it over my head. It looks like a dress on me. “Take her body and throw it over the
border. She will not be buried in our territory for all she has done” Lincoln gives orders to the warrior. He leans down kissing my
lips. “I’m proud of you, Amelia” he says as he pulls back. “I’m going to get cleaned up and get Eli from your parents while you go
be the Alpha.” He chuckles “yes Luna.” He kisses me softly once more before I walk over to the patio. Lily wraps me in a hug first
and then Pheobe. “Give little bean a kiss for me”, Lily says. I head upstairs and jump into the shower before I go upstairs to get
Eli. I tell Lorraine and Charles about Leland and Jennifer. “You just be careful that pup, my son, and this pack need you”,
Lorraine says before she hugs me. Charles hugs me and I take Eli to our room. I feed him and lay him in the bed next to me.
Once he finishes drinking and I kiss him, I lay him in the bassinet. The exhaustion hits me hard and I lay down in our bed to wait
for Lincoln to come back.
Lincoln POV
I’m just finishing up with the warriors when I get a link that my presence is being requested at the hospital. I really would like to
get back to Amelia and Eli but I can’t ignore a request as Alpha. When I reach the hospital, the nurse directs me to Teresa’s
room. What else could they need to tell me after we spoke earlier? I knock and head inside. Leland stands and bows to show
respect. “The nurse said you wanted to see me.” “Yes Alpha, I wasn’t completely honest earlier.” I growl “what does that mean
exactly?” He tells me about Lucas and his brother. I do understand why he didn’t tell us but I’m glad that Teresa convinced him it
was the right thing to do. “Teresa’s right, it is always better to ask for help than to keep secrets Leland.” He nods “we will do
everything we can to save your brother from that ba**ard.” “Thank you, Alpha. I’m sure that means he won’t stay to the timeline,.

he told Lance.” “I’m sure your right about that Leland. We will be ready whenever he attacks.” Just as the words leave my mouth
a patrol guard links me. “Alpha we’re under attack by warlocks.”
